You’ll notice while you shop on our site that some parts show a dollar value as the credit for the Core. The Core is your old part, the one you are replacing. Sometimes this old part can be re-made into a new part and manufacturers offer a credit to you for sending in your old part—much the same way you receive a credit for sending in your old cell phone after you get a new one. A credit will be issued to your original payment method for your new part purchase.

When you select a part to purchase, it will show you the value of the credit for the Core (if applicable). Please note that every part has a different Core price and not all parts have Cores.

IMPORTANT: You are responsible for paying the shipping fee to ship the Core to us. It is your obligation to determine whether the core value outweighs the shipping cost. You may not want to ship us your core if the shipping cost is higher than the core value.

How to send us your Core:

• Cores must be returned within 90 days of the date your order was placed.
• Your existing Core must be in a condition that is not smashed or broken, rusted solid, or otherwise unusable in order to be eligible for the Core credit.
• Shipping charges on Cores are your responsibility and non-refundable.

To ship the Core to us, please follow these steps:

1. All fluids must be drained from the Core.
2. Cores must be returned in the packaging that we used to ship the order to you.
3. On the outside of your package please clearly mark your Full Name & Order Number (Without these items we cannot guarantee credit).
4. Have further questions? Feel free to contact us. We will do whatever we can to help!

Once we receive your Core:

• You will receive an email the day your Core is processed.
• Please allow a minimum of two weeks to receive full credit on your Core. We receive a large quantity of core returns and we must verify each part is in acceptable condition before we can process your credit.
• All Core credits are applied in the same manner you paid for your order. Please note: Once we apply your credit card refund, it may take approximately 3-5 business days for it to appear on your statement. Unfortunately, we cannot control or prevent this type of delay.

Shipping method will be selected by CarPartKings.com. Free shipping orders will be delivered via a standard ground shipping method selected by CarPartKings.com or our drop-ship manufacturers and/or fulfillment centers. Express shipping orders are not eligible for Free Shipping; however you have the option to upgrade your packages for a fee.

Please be aware that all international orders, no matter which shipping option is used, may be subject to additional duties, import taxes, or brokerage or customs fees upon delivery. These fees are calculated by customs officials, and are difficult to estimate prior to shipment. To avoid surprises, please contact your local customs office before placing an order to ask what charges may apply. Please contact us and we will be happy to assist you in gathering information. While we take steps to minimize or eliminate the cost of importing for our customers, we cannot provide inaccurate information to customs officials. Please also be aware that delays in customs are becoming increasingly common. Packages may take longer to get to international destinations, and unfortunately, we cannot control or prevent this delay.

In some cases, extra charges may apply. For example, in the case where an order is being shiped internationally and we don’t already have the part in stock, the part would first need to be shipped to us from the manufacturer before we can ship it to you.
